Opus x double corona with some Thomas h handy sazerac from the buffalo trace antique collection. What an epic combo! This whiskey has a finish of baked apples that goes on for days and it makes the opus super creamy in finish!

Gurkha Sherpa, very average... I probably will not smoke the rest of the four I have left, and will give them out to friends that rarely smoke cigars. Not terrible, but there are much better sticks out there for the $3.50-$4.50 price range on cbid. Pretty smooth, not much in terms of flavor transitions. Slight red pepper zing in the beginning of the first third that mellowed to a sweet tobacco for the majority of the smoke. There were not any transitions until the end where I got the slight pepper zing again with some harsh bitterness towards the nub. Definitely a cigar worthy of a round of golf, not a cigar for sitting down and really enjoying.

I'm working thru the Pete Johnson items we have in the humidor at the shop I'm working today. Series P this morning, Havana red label for lunch and now two sizes of Cabiguans left for the taking. Then I gotta find something to smoke while I drive up north tonight.

Pretty good. I don't normally dig huge RG smokes, but I get a hankering for one every now & then. Mild/medium in body with some spice & smoothness from the Cameroon wrapper. I'd smoke it again...
I didn't think I'd like the fact that it is a huge RG, but I was way wrong with the Habano. Sounds like I'll be trying this one next. Thanks!
